The Civic University Agreement Task and Finish Group has been established to provide guidance and a steer on the development of the Civic University Agreement. This group will report into the Regional Engagement sub-group of LLEG. The University Leadership Team will also receive periodic updates on progress.
Objectives and desired outcomes for the group are:
- To co-create an agreement with other local anchor institutions
- For the agreement to contain a clear plan of action which has been developed by strategic analysis, local engagement and prioritisation
- For the agreement to contain clear measures of impact that allows the community to monitor the progress being made
- To be a recognised area of good civic practice
- To develop a clearer narrative of what Sheffield Hallam does and how the community can get involved, and for this to be understood throughout the University
